Crochet Lacy Granny Square (Style II) Pattern Free (PDF + Beginner Tutorial)

Crochet Lacy Granny Square (Style II) Pattern Free

Pattern Print    Video

Ever since I discovered this Lacy Granny Square pattern, I've been completely smitten with its delicate charm! Unlike traditional granny squares, this airy design features elegant chain spaces and intricate details that give it a romantic, vintage-inspired look. Perfect for intermediate crocheters who want to level up their square game!

Each 6.5-inch square works up beautifully in light yarn, creating stunning possibilities - from ethereal shawls to heirloom blankets. I especially love how these squares bring a touch of Victorian elegance to any project.

Excited to try? I've broken down each round with clear photos and detailed instructions to help you create your own lovely lacework. Let's hook something beautiful together!

Recommended Yarn and Crochet Hooks

For my sample square, I used Loopara milk cotton yarn in this dreamy lilac shade, and I'm absolutely in love with how it turned out! The milk cotton blend is perfect for this delicate pattern - it's soft with a subtle sheen, holds its shape beautifully, and shows off all those intricate details we worked so hard to create. Plus, it's wonderfully gentle on your hands while working!

I used a 2.0mm hook to achieve this fine, lacy texture. The small hook size might seem tiny, but trust me - it's the secret to those crisp, well-defined stitches that make this square so special. If you're used to larger hooks, take it slow and enjoy the delicate process!

Pro tip: Whatever yarn you choose, stick with light, solid colors for your first few squares - it makes it so much easier to see your stitches and appreciate the lovely lacework pattern!

What I absolutely adore about this granny square is its versatility - you can join them together for a stunning heirloom blanket, create elegant table runners, or even make delicate curtain panels. Plus, they're wonderfully portable - just pop your yarn and hook in your bag, and you can work on them anywhere!

If they're too tight, your square might pucker at the corners.

 

How to Join Granny Squares

Granny squares are perfect for bags, clothing, and blankets. If you’re thinking of making one with those squares, I’m excited to share my comprehensive guide on 11 Ways to Join Granny Squares with you! I’ve detailed every method I know and love – each brings its own special touch to your finished piece. Let me help you discover which one works best for you!

 

How to Change Colors in a Granny Square

Are you looking for a different color palette? I totally get it—it’s why I love crochet! If you’re not crazy about our color palette, I put together two color-changing techniques that I use for all of my projects. Let me show you how to make these color transitions smooth and professional so you can bring your unique, creative vision to life.

 

How to Weave in Ends Crochet Granny Square

The secret for professional-looking granny squares is all about how you weave in those ends. I’m sharing 3 ways to weave in ends with you! These are techniques I’ve perfected over years of crocheting and use in all my projects. I’ll show you exactly how I secure my ends to make sturdy, polished pieces that last. Trust me, once you master these finishing methods, your granny squares will look absolutely stunning!

 

Care instructions

Let me share my favorite care tips to keep your lovely lacy squares looking their best!

When it comes to washing, I always recommend hand washing these delicate beauties in cool water with a gentle wool wash or mild detergent. Avoid wringing or twisting - instead, gently squeeze out excess water by pressing the squares between clean towels. The lacy pattern is quite delicate, so rough handling might stretch those carefully crafted chains out of shape!

For drying, lay your squares flat on a clean, white towel away from direct sunlight. I like to gently shape them while they're damp, making sure all those pretty chain spaces are nicely opened up. This is also the perfect time to check that your corners are properly squared - a few strategically placed pins can work wonders!

To maintain that gorgeous lilac color (or whatever shade you've chosen), always store your squares away from direct sunlight. I keep mine in a breathable cotton bag rather than plastic - this protects them from dust while allowing the yarn to breathe. If you're storing multiple squares before joining them, try layering them with white tissue paper to prevent any color transfer or snags.

One of my favorite tricks for maintaining shape over time is to give your finished project (whether it's a shawl, blanket, or table runner) a gentle blocking session every few months. This helps keep those intricate lacy patterns looking crisp and well-defined. Just a light spritz with water and reshaping is usually all it needs!

Remember, with proper care, these lovely squares can become cherished heirlooms that maintain their beauty for years to come!
